Cybernetics and Dependence: Reframing the Control Concept
Abstract
Control is defined as the cybernetic regulation of iterative activity within dependence relationships. This framework is used to examine critical aspects of control and its initiation. Two quasi-control responses, dependence reduction and dependence restructuring, are proposed and discussed. Implications of the framework for research and managerial practice are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
